Customer Reviews & Comments
I've been a text (notepad) coder since I first learned HTML over 10 years ago. I just started learning Dreamweaver a few months back and this book has been a huge help in getting me up and running quickly with software that has a less than intuitive interface. I recommend this book to anybody getting started with Dreamweaver.
